yeah Wolf a lot of discussion on this article in the main forum--- I pointed out early on that the drivers notes are clearly stating 2WD mode which is stupid.

Too me 3.3 to 60 on rwd only sounds almost too good, given what the F10’s were able to do. Has any M5 owner been able to match that? |

but clearly based on members's results here, the trap speeds are way off too. I just think there is something else missing in this test. I owned 2 F10's and traction was an issue out of the gate but from my personal view part of the reason was the shitty electronic differential. The ZF tranny coupled with a better differential does allow for more traction in the 2wd department on my F90 (especially via launches).

How professional is this ???
I just read the full article and wonder how professional this test is.
Where are the settings used for the lap times ? no info "I hated the steering": well I do not appreciate approximations... what is there to hate ? too heavy steering ? non linear ? no detail given And these are just two examples which make me wonder how seriously you can take this article in consideration. Sport Auto at least does a better job... |
